Comfortable win for basketballers in Frankfurt

FC Bayern’s basketballers won their game away at Fraport Skyliners in Frankfurt 77-57. In front of a crowd of 4,930, the Bavarians were commanding for long periods and ran out deserved winners at a side with a strong home record. Bryce Taylor was the MVP with 22 points (5/6 three-pointers). “It’s tough for anyone to play in Frankfurt. But we played with energy from the start today. The key was definitely our dominance on the rebounds,” said coach Sasa Djordjevic, who spoke of a “good reaction after the defeat in Bonn. I’m really pleased today.”
